Punx Manga Special

In this one-shot from 1996, Acclaim/Valiant took a wild detour into manga-inspired territory, with Keith Giffen writing and Kevin Lau on art. The issue reimagines the Punx—a team of punk-rock rebels—through a stylized, anime-influenced lens, offering a brief but energetic glimpse of what a Valiant/Manga crossover might look like. It stands as a curious, offbeat artifact of the mid-90s, capturing the era's fascination with blending Western comics and Japanese pop aesthetics.
